The Claas brothers

Under the name “Gebrüder Claas” (Claas Brothers), the firm became well known all around the world. So who were the company’s founding fathers, August, Bernhard, Franz and Theo, and what were they like?

Engine + Drive train.

Cleaning up.

The TORION front end performance is matched by minimal emissions at the rear. The big DPS four-cylinder engine in the TORION 956 SINUS meets the Stage IV (Tier4f) exhaust emissions standard. Exhaust treatment is carried out with a diesel particulate filter (DPF) with integrated diesel oxidation catalyst (DOC) and SCR technology. The Yanmar engine in the two compact SINUS models already fulfils the Stage V emissions standard. Exhaust treatment is with a diesel particulate filter (DPF) with integrated diesel oxidation catalyst (DOC).

Smart cooling.

All TORION SINUS models can be fitted with a reversible fan as optional equipment, for automatic cleaning of the radiator and radiator intake surfaces. The fan reverses its direction of rotation at regular intervals, and blows coarse dirt particles and fine dust out of the system.

Plenty of pressure.

To give the driver the required power whenever it is needed, all engines in the SINUS are fitted with a wastegate turbocharger. In combination with the two-speed hydrostatic transmission, the turbocharger noticeably enhances the driving dynamics of the vehicle.

Ground drive. SMART SHIFTING.

Shifting made SMART.

The TORION SINUS shifts gears when it's right for you – without you even noticing it. The two-speed hydrostatic ground drive synchronises the gears according to the driving mode. Depending on the accelerator pedal position, the transmission shifts at a speed of between 8 and 16 km/h.

Fast and convenient to use.

Farms with many different work locations and livestock buildings need a fast and agile wheel loader that gets the job done even when space is at a premium.

The user-friendly TORION SINUS models extend the CLAAS product range with one large wheel loader and two compact models, with top speeds of 40 km/h. As a resuilt, the popular 40 km/h machines are now also available in the 5-tonne and 6-tonne classes.

Chassis.

Standing firm on a tiny base.

The challenge was to design an agile wheel loader with even higher payload capacity. The solution was to maximise the vehicle’s stability and anti-tip protection with a chassis that set new standards for loaders in these classes. The TORION SINUS is steered not only via the central articulated joint, but also via the rear axle. The front chassis is connected to the rear stub axle with two steering rods. As soon as the driver turns the loader with the steering wheel, the rear axle is also steered in sync.

This means that the TORION SINUS does not turn as far on full lock. This provides the following benefits: smaller turning circle, but increased stability and payload capacity. The TORION SINUS lifts more, is more manoeuvrable and even more comfortable to drive.

Safe on a firm footing.

With an articulation angle of 30 degrees and an angle of oscillation of 8 degrees on both sides, the robust and durable articulated joint keeps the wheel loader on a firm footing, even when it twists to the side on uneven ground. Driver comfort while working is further enhanced by damping in the joint.

Additionally, thanks to pre-stressed damper blocks on the rear axle, the TORION 956 SINUS can also oscillate by 5 degrees to the left and right.
